Killed and q Score Injured.
ROCHESTER, n T., Dec. 22.-Shortly be-
fore $50 o'clock yesterday afternoon ter
rihc explosion occurred in front of the Poole
Factory street. The exp .osion was felt
tor q long distance Only few seconds
after the first explosion another fol-
loved, and another, and another, in
rapid succession Instantly flames burst
from the Poole mill, and the rear walks fell
IN. 1t was only few minutes before the
Washington mill, adjoining the burning
structure, was also ON fire, and thence the
flames communicated to other buildings
One Of the workmen jumped from the
third story of the Poole mill and is
seriously injured Another escaped by
jumping into the race. It is believed that
tour persons are killed These are: Fred
erick Wilson, Edward A. Webster, AUran
Rogers and John Lee The injured will
number at Least twenty. Most OF them are
bruised and cut
The cause of the explosion was that the
savers in the vicinity were filled with
naptha Yesterday Ii, 600 gallons OF naptha
were pumped from the vacuum oil works
through the ppe lying in the bed of the
old canal 1t was INTENDED for the Municipal
Gas Company, but one or more breaks In
the line allowed the naptha to escape in; 10
the adjoining sewera When the sewers
became surcharged with the gas it escaped
into the mills ind exploded there or else
where, and the fire made its way through
the mains in the middle of the streets
by throwing out the man-hole covers
and tearing up the roadway.
The aggregate damage is hard to esti-
mute The following individual losses me
known: Washington mill and contenss,
$50, 900; insurance, $50, 1000; Jefferson

Four people are re oreed to have died

are trying to do all in their power to re-
Neve the distress, but they are handi-
capped by scarcity Of cars They have
not enough to supply the urgent demand

is inevitable unless the weather speedily
moderates The Santa Fe route has already
announced that it will ship tree all supp les
which may be collected for Clark County.
